What foods do you miss the most?

I am still in the researching and trying to get approval stage but during the last week or so I have been wondering "What if I do get approved for this surgery. Am I going to beable to go for the long haul?" I love potatoe chips, ice cream, snickers bars, and Turkey with dressing, mash potatoes and lots of gravy. But I know that I won't beable to have them after the surgery. I know that I will beable to give them up for the 18 months after surgery (that's only 1 Thanksgiving) but I am afraid that I won't beable to give them up for the rest of my life. I know that I will feel 100% better, that my health will be much better but whats to keep me from back sliding? Is your behavior completely changed after the 18 months? Everybody on here is doing so well, and you are all so disciplined I have never been a disciplined person - I am not organized and I am a very impulsive person when it comes to having to make a decision right now. So I eat a lot of fast foods - because I don't have the patience to cook or the energy to shop and I can never remember just what I'm suppossed to be looking for on a label. How do you turn into such a disciplined eater?
